im sure they would be interested in a lot of players but clearly we cant give the more valuable ones out on loan + cash for anoter sporting player who might end up being the next nani or anderson. sorry..thats a bad deal..anyway..its not like its happening..its goal.com.

Well, if true, that's a start. Jones, Smalling and Evans are arguably either not good enough, or injured to frequently, so another centre back along with Rojo is needed too.
I'd be surprised if Nani goes to Sporting on loan he can play at a higher level than that and it's a shit deal for us, what's the point of loaning him out?
http://www.espn.co.uk/espn/sport/story/334383.htmlThat's a bit random.
From Duncan Castles who also writes for the Times...
Nani is of no use, and thats saying something, but will he want to go to Sporting?
so who's the source? goal or Castles? I know Castles has a proper job with the Times.
Castles.
Tbf. Castles has been quite good for a year now. Also Nani going the other way could mean that he finds some form again and you can sell him next year.
Seems like only Chicharito can be sold for a decent fee this year. Anderson is out of contract next year and I don't see him being sold this year.

Heres the Goal article from Castles
What people, including myself, are worried about with Blind is that he may not be able to emulate that World Cup form at club level. It's no secret that it's different to play on the international stage compared to play week in week out for a club depending of the level of the competition.
To be honest we've always been so critical about Castles because the only articles he writes are anti-United, the same reason why we've started hating Jamie Jackson but they've been pretty much accurate so far, we just wanted to believe in that 1% chance that signings like Kroos materialize.
Who the hell does he think he is? When his employer says his ass is going somewhere, it means his ass is going somewhere, end of story.
So which target list is Rojo from?? D or E??
Is Ogden on holiday? Haven't heard a squeak from him in ages
Except he has a contract to play for Manchester United, a contract that still has four years left, he can stay if he wants.
Id put him in the "fuk it there's no one else" section
B. Backup to Vermaelen.
I'd go 'A' - As-well-as. Seem like we need more than 1 additional defender to me, even if it's as cover for injuries.
A- list: hummels, benatia
b- list: rojo, vermaelen
C- list: vlaar
b- list: rojo, vermaelen
C- list: vlaar
All signings have an element of risk, and that'd be one with signing Blind. Another risk is can he translate his form from the Dutch league to the English league. Suarez came from Ajax, and for all his temperamental faults was a great signing for Liverpool. Vertonghen for me has been hit and miss. Eriksen has been a good sighing for Spurs. All those came from Ajax. Blind player of the year at Ajax and the Dutch league last season as a holding midfielder, but that doesn't mean he'll succeed, nor does it mean he'll fail in England.
You think so?? Genuine question i though our wish list had the following order:Hummels Vermaelen ......Rojo.
Well Hummels by all that has been reported was never available, so really no point having him as a target. I am sure Messi is on every club's target for the sake of it.
I think its pretty obvious that we wanted 2 defenders:
Rojo is the lefty-versatile-defender backup to Vermaelen.
Benatia is the first-defender-on-team-sheet backup to Hummels.
Are you serious? There's choosing the right typograph, formatting, spacing, running ms word spell-check, font size and that's just the tip of the iceberg. Don't get me started on all the different kinds of paper and envelopes. It's all in the details.
It's not whether you get the player or not, it's how you make the bid.
Not sure why you're saying 'apart from Benatia'? If he was available (like you implied), isn't your "who was available" question meaningless?
City highlights why it's so important to have a DoF.
Got their main targets and then signed Silva, Aguero, Kompany to new 5yr contracts.
Whose stupid idea was that for a start?
What's with all these ultimatums? The transfer window closes when it closes. So, Roma get an good offer for one of their players and they wouldn't go for it?
Media crap.
And got rid of the unwanted ones in the squad.
